As I have said in previous articles during the trial of the Hip-Hop superstar Sean “Diddy” Combs, his conviction for soliciting prostitution could be seen as a let off considering his abusive treatment of women over a long period of time. So, you would think that no matter how aggrieved Combs was with the new…
Yesterday afternoon, Sean Combs was sentenced to four years in prison. But let’s be honest he’ll probably end up serving about two years with “good behaviour and credit.” At the start of the day, the judge said he was going to consider everything even the things Diddy had been acquitted for. He also mentioned that he…
Sean Combs, also known as “Diddy,” was recently found guilty on only two out of five charges brought against him. The charges he was convicted of involved transportation to engage in prostitution specifically related to Cassie Ventura and another woman referred to as Jane. However, many observers, including myself, expected more convictions particularly on the sex trafficking charge…
After Sean “Diddy” Combs’ defense team wrapped up their case in just 20 minutes on Tuesday, the stage was set for the prosecution’s closing statement—and they delivered far more than expected. Admittedly, I left Monday feeling concerned. The prosecution’s case, while full of substance, had started to feel overcomplicated. The charges—particularly those involving prostitution across…

The prosecution could…

As the second week ends in the trial of the hip-hop mogul the prosecution is finally building momentum in proving its case, leaving the defence clutching at straws. Let’s not forget the judge a few times this week told the defence team off. On day nine the judge warned the defence over a sexual line…
After the first week of the prosecution’s star witness Cassie Ventura’s explosive testimony, there is much speculation of who will take the stand in the second week of the trial of the music mogul. Before we explore some of the possibilities, how did Cassie the ex-girlfriend of Combs do? I thought she did very well…
The sensational trial of the hip-hop mogul on charges of sex trafficking and sexual abuse charges finally got under way on Monday in New York. According to the BBC, because of the media attention the court had dedicated three rooms of overflow for Diddy’s friends, family, journalists, celebrities and onlookers and it made for a…
